Trickling Filter Biological
Part of the wastewater treatment facility. It consists of a fixed bed of rocks and moss. Wastewater flows downward and causes a layer of biofilm to grow on the rocks and moss. Aerobic (requiring oxygen) conditions are maintained by the arms splashing water on the fixed bed of rocks.
Rotating Biological Rotators
Rotating Biological Contactors or RBC’s is a fixed film treatment process used in secondary treatment of wastewater. The RBC process allows the wastewater to come in contact with a biological film in order to remove pollutants. RBC’s consists of a series of closely spaced parallel discs mounted on a rotating shaft. RBC’s are usually submerged 30% to 40%.
Fixed Film Media Biological
Fix film media has micro-organisms that grow. They build up on the media until they are sloughed off due to the rotating disc in the sewage.
Electrical Panel
Electrical panel that controls the set points for the wastewater plant operations.
